Written several years after Joseph Conrad’s grueling sojourn in the Belgian Congo, the novel is a complex meditation on colonialism, evil, and the thin line between civilization and barbarity. This edition contains selections from Conrad’s \u003ci\u003eCongo Diary\u003c\/i\u003e of 1890—the first notes, in effect, for the novel, which was composed at the end of that decade. Virginia Woolf wrote of Conrad: “His books are full of moments of vision. They light up a whole character in a flash. . . . He could not write badly, one feels, to save his life.”","brand":"Modern Library","offers":[{"title":"US - Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":46361270878435,"sku":"DTRPRUS-9780375753770","price":77.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1778\/4925\/files\/9780375753770.jpg?v=1747522438","url":"https:\/\/buybookbook.com\/zh\/products\/9780375753770","provider":"買書書 BuyBookBook","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
